PON production test

GPON & XGS-PON ONT production test. Optical, protocol and traffic in one pass.

A 16-DUT rack, two tiers of eight wired by PON fibre and LAN, with a PON tester, optical power meter, DCA scope and production OLT — including combo ONTs with Wi-Fi, voice and 10G Ethernet.

What every ONT goes through

  • Optical TX power, extinction ratio, RX sensitivity
  • OLT registration, ranging and OMCI checks
  • End-to-end traffic, voice and functional tests
The challenge

Why this is hard to get right in-house.

Going deeper: GPON & XGS-PON ONT production test checklist

Challenge 01

Three disciplines

Optical power, PON protocol and Wi-Fi RF are usually handled by different vendors and tools — leaving gaps in traceability.

Challenge 02

Operator requirements

Service providers expect OMCI interoperability and TR-069 behaviour to be verified before units ship.

Challenge 03

Volume and margin

ONTs are high-volume, low-margin products — every second of cycle time and every false fail matters.

The line

Station by station.

A typical configuration. We split and parallelise stations to hit your units-per-hour target.

01

Optical test

TX optical power, extinction ratio and RX sensitivity, with eye-diagram checks on the DCA.

02

PON protocol

OLT registration, ranging, OMCI checks and IP traffic through the PON path.

03

Wi-Fi & functional

Wi-Fi calibration for combo units, Ethernet throughput, POTS / VoIP, USB, LEDs and buttons.

04

Final QC

GPON SN / MAC / password write and verify, label print and MES upload.

FAQ

Questions engineers ask us

Which PON technologies do you support?

GPON, XG-PON, XGS-PON and EPON / 10G-EPON ONTs and ONUs, including combo units with Wi-Fi, voice and multi-gigabit Ethernet.

Do we need a real OLT on the line?

Not always. Depending on test coverage we use a production OLT or OLT emulation to verify registration, ranging, OMCI and end-to-end traffic.

Can one line test both the PON and Wi-Fi side of a combo ONT?

Yes — that is our speciality. Optical, protocol and Wi-Fi stations run under one Line Manager test plan with one serial-number record per unit.
